Summary
I use this every day as skin prep before I shave and it works really well. It's a nice compromise between washing and exfoliating and I think it works well. The tube is stiff so I put some in a tub and use it from that. This means that I don't waste any as it's easy to get too much out of the tube.

This is a surprising effective scrub from L’Oreal. I admit it is mainly used by my husband as I prefer to use a more natural product on my skin but I have used this several time. My husband suffers from blackheads on the nose area and I purchased this scrub to see if it would alleviate the problem. The scrub comes in an attractive and practical flip top tube ad the product is a thick, gel cream texture with blue bead particles I am unsure but I think these partciales must be the blueberry derivative and Salicylic acid extract as they seem to break down during massage. The product contains micro exfoliation beads which do not scratch or irritate the skin.
A tin amount applied to damp face produces a creamy lather and immediately you can feel a slight tingling on the skin. This is the Salicylic acid which breaks don the grime and sebum that blocks the pores. We noticed a very quick effect on the blackheads and texture the skin. After rinsing away your skin does look brighter and very clean without feeling dry or tight. We have not seen any notable changes in marks on the skin at all. One comment is that I am unsure as to whether this is supposed to be a unisex product but it does seem to have quite a masculine fragrance. Not a problem for me but it may be for others
All in all this tube lasts for a very long time and is excellent value for money. As of yet my husband has not suffered and irritation with continued use
